I'm trying to price out a sit-drag and RCH set-up. I'm going to pair that with a one-stick climbing method and rappelling from the top. I'm trying to figure out if it's cost effective enough or if it would be worth going with a prepared kit. My understanding is that if I invest now in the lineman and tether and stick, I can upgrade the harness later.
The sit-drag would based of OUTDOOR 62 design. Three pouches to hold ropes. A Amsteel bridge for the tether and a separate lineman rope.
The RCH would be connected to the same tether as the sit drag with a rappel device .
